Why these settings

The Twin Reverb is an ultra-clean platform with scooped mids and huge headroom, so all the heavy dirt comes directly from the Ampero's distortion block. Keep the Twin's Bright switch OFF and roll the Tele's tone knob slightly back to 8 to prevent the bridge single-coil from sounding harsh through Fender's top-end shelf. Use the Ampero direct into the front input with high-gain Rat/British distortion and ambient time-effects.

PRO TIPLock your Ampero tap tempo to 67 BPM with dotted-eighth notes to make the soaring bridge octave lead sit rhythmically in the massive reverb space.
